CAMDEN — Three Camden residents were indicted Friday on charges they stole more than $200,000 worth of checks from industrial park mailboxes.

Ivory Vernon, 29, Joseph Reevey, 38, and Ibn Muhammad, 35, are each charged with bank fraud and conspiracy to commit bank fraud in connection with the alleged scheme. Muhammad was additionally charged with illegal possession of a firearm.

According to the indictment, the three stole checks from curbside mailboxes in industrial parks in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware from Aug. 6, 2012 to Aug. 1, 2013.

They allegedly recruited others to cash the stolen checks. Authorities said Muhammad and others would change the name of the payee on each check to match that of a recruited check casher.

The accused would then go with the check cashers to a bank, often in rented cars, authorities said.

They allegedly cashed more than 45 stolen checks, resulting in more than $100,000 in losses for the banks.

Vernon was arrested Friday by Camden County Sheriff’s officers on unrelated charges. Reevey was in Pennsylvania state custody, authorities said, and Muhammad was in federal custody.

Muhammad’s gun possession charge came when authorities searching his home in May 2013 reported finding a Smith & Wesson revolver and a Browning pistol.

On the counts of bank fraud and conspiracy to commit bank fraud, each defendant faces a maximum possible 30 years in prison and a $1 million fine, or twice the gross gain or loss caused by the crime.

On the count of illegal gun possession, Muhammad faces a maximum possible 10 years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
